Jewish religion — God’s judgement
August 31, 2010
Jewish religion — That evening the man and the woman heard the Lord God
walking in the garden, and they hid from him among the
trees. The Lord God called to the man: `Where are you?’ The
man replied: ‘I heard you in the garden; I was afraid because
I am naked, and I hid from you.’ God asked: `Who told you
that you were naked? Have you eaten the fruit which I com-
manded you not to eat?’ The man answered: `The woman,
whom you put here with me, gave me the fruit, and I ate it.’
God said to the woman: `Why did you do this?’ The woman
replied: `The snake tricked me.’
The Lord God said to the woman: `I shall increase the
pains of pregnancy and childbirth. You will desire your husband, and yet you will be subject to him.’
Then he said to the man: `Because of what you have done,
the ground will be cursed. You will have to work hard all
your life to gain enough food from it. It will produce thorns
and thistles, and you will have to eat wild plants. By the sweat
of your brow you will eat, until you return to the ground
from which you came. You are made of dust, and to dust you
will return.’
Adam, which means `man’, named his wife Eve, because
she would be the mother of all human beings.
Then the Lord God said: `Human beings are now like us,
knowing good and evil. They must not be allowed to eat fruit
from the tree of life, and live for ever.’ So he banished them
from the garden of Eden.
Genesis 3.8-t3, 16-20, 22-23a
